Jumping To Another Playback Position In Your Project - Native Instruments MASCHINE MK3 Manual

This may also be necessary if you are composing a studio track in your host sequencer and
want to control which Scenes or Sections the MASCHINE plug-in has to play. This is where the
MASCHINE tools described in the following sections come in handy.

Jumping to another Playback Position in Your Project

You can use the timeline above the Scene headers in the Arranger to set the playback to the
desired position.
In the timeline and across the entire height of the Arranger, the playhead (a white vertical line)
indicates the current play position in your Project.
The playhead shows you the current play position.
At any time you can jump to another position in your Project:
Click anywhere in the timeline to move the playhead to that position in the Project.

Depending on the playback state, the following will happen:
▪ If playback is off, the playhead jumps to the closest Pattern Grid division before your
mouse cursor. If the Pattern Grid is set to
exact position you have clicked. If the Pattern Grid is set to Quick, the playhead jumps to
the beginning of the bar you have clicked in.
▪ If playback is on, the playhead jumps to the closest position near your mouse cursor that
retains the current playhead position relative to the Arranger Grid division. This allows
seamless jumps that don't break the rhythm of your music. If the Pattern Grid is set to
(i.e. disabled) or Quick, the playhead position is retained relative to the current bar.
